Shadow

Postby Mikhael » Mon Aug 30, 2010 10:27 pm

Your body in bright light glows
And I fall off you, from head to toes
I stalk you; following you through your day
Walking, running, and dancing with you all the way
I mimic you; whatever you do I repeat
But all you do for me is walk on my feet
To you I am something dark and below
Cold, heartless, even shallow
Perhaps that is why towards me you never gaze
Or how I darken as you soak in the sun’s rays


What will happen when the lights go out
And suddenly there is only blackness about
No one will be around
There will be not a sound
At the spot I usually lie you will stare
And for the first time I won’t be there
That is where I’ll leave you to roam
There in the dark, all alone.

Same poem, after being edited like four times



You stand tall in the light
And I fall off you, from head to toes
I am your closest companion
Throughout the entire day
I’ll follow you.
I’ll mimic you.
I forever dance along
You can see it from the corner of your eye
I do this for you. I do this for you.
But all you do for me is walk on my feet
And as the day grows I’ll retreat
I grow darker

What will happen when the lights go out
And then there’s only darkness about
A keen silence will fill the air
No one
Will be around
Because I’ll leave you
On the ground
There will be black
Just your shaky breath, and your fear
There in the dark
All alone
